Solution

The correct option is D Only a just king would treat so mercifully those who have been driven to petty crimes.
Since the adverb "mercifully" modifies the verb "treat", these should be placed together. Hence, Option C is correct. The rest of the options do not place the adverb and the verb together, hence incorrect.
